Flash Bang Rockets

Featured Replies

Hello, it's 4:00AM 7 May 2010. Since 3:20AM flash-bang rockets have been launched in lower Silom, Lumpini and what I think is Wireless Road area. What's up? Getting rid of un-needed arms? Why in the midddle of the night...aggro?

I'm watching from a high balcony in Sukh area, but I am sure of the location. Seems to have stopped now (10 mins..no bangs).

Yeah...I did hear a chopper about 3:25AM, but could not see it.

I'm up closer to Central World on near Ratchadamri. I heard the helicopter, then the rockets (not even close - why provoke if you're going to miss by hundreds of meters?), but then I saw a huge flash of light coming from the Rathaprasong stage followed by a loud boom. Soon after I started hearing explosions not coming from above but from street level. Then I heard what sounded like gun fire. It was like bam . . . . . . bam . . . . bam . . . . bam . . . . . . bam . . . bam. Loud, from street level, and didn't sound like your typical firecracker (M80) explosion I was hearing earlier.

Wasn't it Bum Bum Bum Bum? That's why so many foreigners are coming to the LOS.
